Fluxheim 1.6.28 Release Notes

Fluxheim 1.6.28 continues the Pingora-exit work by moving two more rich proxy
features onto the native HTTP/1 route/proxy adapters.

Highlights

• Route-level response compression now works in the native HTTP/1 route proxy
  through the fluxheim-compression crate.
• Native compression feature mapping now reaches fluxheim-server for gzip,
  zstd, and brotli builds.
• Native route compression preserves the existing eligibility checks: GET
  only, 200 OK, compressible content type, bounded input/output size,
  Accept-Encoding negotiation, no active Content-Encoding, no Range
  response, no Set-Cookie, and no request Authorization or Cookie.
• Native route compression now ranks enabled codecs by the client's
  Accept-Encoding q-values before falling back to Fluxheim's tie-break order.
• proxy.error_pages now builds on the native HTTP/1 proxy for static 502/504
  fallback pages backed by fluxheim-web.
• Native custom proxy error pages preserve the proxy failure status while using
  the configured static error page body and headers.
• Live native HTTP/1 listener tests now prove gzip route compression and custom
  proxy error-page responses end to end.

Security Notes

• Native compression removes origin ETag and Content-Length before sending
  the compressed body, appends Vary: accept-encoding, and lets the native
  response writer own the final compressed length.
• Compression is skipped rather than forced if the encoder exceeds configured
  output bounds or cannot initialize.
• Custom proxy error pages only serve files resolved by the native static-web
  resolver; directory listings, missing files, forbidden paths, and oversized
  bodies fall back to the standard 502/504 response.
• Custom proxy error-page responses now close the downstream connection after
  the upstream failure, matching the built-in 502/504 failure responses.
• Native error-page serving uses the same symlink-safe fluxheim-web path
  validation and rooted file-open behavior as native static routes.

Compatibility

This release does not remove Pingora from normal builds yet. The remaining
compatibility-path blockers are inherited global/vhost compression, cache
lookup/fill/stale behavior, PHP-FPM routing, auth-request, traffic mirror,
forwarded-client-IP ownership shortcuts, dynamic discovery, health-aware
load-balancing, persistence, priority/backup/drain state, and hash-based
load-balancer selection.
